Russia is not facing difficulties in selling its oil as many countries are showing interest in purchasing Russian crude, Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said in an interview with Marina Kim on the talk show "Solovyov Live".

According to Novak, the choice of buyers will depend on demand and commercial terms. Contracts for oil deliveries will be signed with those countries that need Russian oil and offer the most favorable conditions.

Novak also announced that the first tanker with oil has already departed from the port of Dikson. This statement was made in the context of discussing the reorientation of Russian oil supplies to Asian markets and the implementation of new large-scale projects in the country.
